    While a number of the mechanics will feel familiar, The Bridge still feels like a slick perception puzzler that fans of brain ticklers will no doubt warm to.

    At only $10, it’s worth a plunge for genre fans, but only expect about three hours of gameplay with a startling difficulty spike.

In order to do this the player canThe Bridge is a 2d puzzle game in which the player must attempt to reach the exit for each of its chapters. In order to do this the player can rotate the screen a full 360 degrees. Further complications, such as keys that need to be collected or giant balls that can crush you, are added as you progress.

    The game uses beautifully hand drawn black and white graphics ensuring its own unique look. The puzzles are well designed and (mostly) logical, although as with many games in the genre they do arguably become too complex towards the end. Some sort of hint system may have helped but as it is very few will be able to complete the game without some sort of help from online guides.

    Available at a budget price fans of puzzle games should certainly give this a try.

Really simple controls with the right and left trigger. The physics and general concept reminds me of the Labyrinth game with a little bit of Limbo. Really pleasant and enjoyable brain teasers.

The controls are simple and work well. Some puzzles will take you a minute while other, more mind-bending puzzles, can eat up a lot of your time while adding to your frustration. However, the satisfaction gained by completing the more difficult puzzles is what keeps you pushing forward. The style, unique level design, fun and challenging puzzles are what make The Bridge one of the most engaging games currently on the XboxLive Arcade. It is by no means one of the best games ever, but it is well worth your $10. Full Review »
